Da Vinci Code Plagarism Case Thrown Out of Court
Topic: World News

The case against The Da Vinci Code author Dan Brown citing plagarism from two authors of the 1982 non-fiction consipracy theory book The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail was thrown out of court today, with the judge ruling that Brown didn't use the Holy Blood's ideas as his central theme.

So after six months of fake author alerts, including J.T. Leroy and James Frey, Dan Brown comes out smelling like a rose as his movie streaks towards the box office and what will certainly be enough money for Brown to buy England.

And what will become of the two plaintiffs in the case? They're stuck with a 350,000 pound bill, because they were too stupid to get an attorney that was working for a cut of the results, not cash up front. D'oh.
